Aerosol-induced intensification of cooling effect of clouds during Indian summer monsoon

Aerosol-induced intensification of cooling effect of clouds during Indian summer monsoon

The invigoration of deep convective clouds in the Indian summer monsoon region is associated with high aerosol loading. Here the authors show that convective clouds from high aerosol loads in the Indian Summer Monsoon region have a cooling effect.
